As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
I have it on good authority we've agreed to sign Nick Powell from Crewe Alexandra. United were in pole position, but Crewe trained at London Colney before the Play-off Final at Wembley. Wenger went down to Colney, met the player and persuaded him to join us. Powell was impressed with the facilities, he wants to move to London and sees the Ox, Theo, Jack, Szec etc all getting first team playing time. And the key factor.......... we've offered him £30k per week. United are in the low teens on their wages offer.
My gf being from Crewe I went to wembley today ,
5 of us,3 gooners;
And we watched it all game since he s been linked to to us and we got to say he looks like a quality prospect.,
As someone said maybe he ll be at crystal palace in 4 years..
But for now I m happy we get him.
Their supporters were happily surprised to have a frenchy cheering on them
